In mathematical perspective this may be the solution Let X be the total number of pages [ In this case it is 8 ]
Let Y be the current page. Then the display on each page will be : Y / [(X/2)+1] Assuming that (X/2) returns an integer. -----Original Message----- From: Leonard Wolters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 13, 2003 6:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Problem with displaying total page numbers in PDF document Situation sketch: I'll need to generate a PDF document that has the following page number 'algorithm'. The document starts with a cover (page 1). Then, a couple of pages will follow for which each left (even) AND right (odd) page should have the SAME page number. The document ends with a footer page. For example, 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 So far I managed to fix the page numbers for the even and odd pages. However, the problem is is that for each page, a 'wrong' total number is given. Given the example above, the first page displays 'page 1/8'. This should be 'page 1/5'. Does anyone have any suggestion / tip to help me fixing this ? I already tried hacking / fooling around with the pageCount variable in org.apache.fop.apps.StreamRenderer, unfortunately without any result. Playing around with PageSequence also didn't provide any solution. The solution must be somewhere at the end of the PDF generation; that's the only time that the PDF document knows howmany pages are available and can 'fix' the total amount of pages. Exactly at this point, the PDF document must be 'fooled'.
